Arjun Kapoor admitted in the video how he was a foodie and now he would be learning how to cook. He tried his hands at making the decadent dishes under the guidance of Chef Gulaam Gouse Dewani from The Butler & The Bay Leaf. "The trickiest thing about today's cooking is the fact that I have to enjoy myself while learning something new and that's not always easy," said Arjun Kapoor.
